An immortal miser. A child in danger. An icy heart melted by the power of love.* * *Jack Frost never asked to be immortal. The gods thrust their magic upon him when he was still too young to comprehend the bargain. Century after century, age after age, he conjures snow and ice, ushering in the death of all things at the end of each year. Addicted to violence, obsessed with wealth, he flits through the ages, changing names as often as cities.
When a stupid misstep in the old country forces him to flee the great halls of Europe, Jack finds himself on the fledgling Dutch island of Manhattan, perched on the edge of a pristine continent that is ripe for the taking. In this uncharted paradise, a clever magician could well have it all.In the year 1643, a defenseless orphan enters his life. If the stars align, she could well become the world's most beloved sorceress, destined to make glad the heart of childhood.
But only if she lives. For reasons Jack Frost cannot fathom, assassins and monsters want the infant Kris Kringle dead. And now, the world's oldest misanthrope finds himself fighting for something he has never known: love. A prequel to the story of Santa Claus-as you've never imagined her. Not intended for children. The author recommends readers enjoy this book AFTER they have read Sorceress Kringle.
